ESNSurvey 2008: Exchanging Cultures

ESNSurvey 2008 closed: more than 8000 students responded! 

Do you want to see the results?

The main topic of 2008 was “Exchanging Cultures”. As one of the core objectives of any exchange is to discover foreign cultures, integrate with local people and try to adapt to new cultural conditions, we think it is interesting to see if these processes really take place during a study period in a foreign country. Furthermore, we analyze the impacts of an experience abroad on the personal abilities to overcome cultural differences and to benefit from the new cultural environment. The survey deals with topics such as cultural shock and its social implications, integration with local culture and people, intercultural skills learned etc.

We would like to thank all ESN sections for promoting the survey and for their collaboration and, in particular, our ESNSurvey Partners:

  • ACA (Academic Cooperation Association)
  • AEGEE (European Students' Forum)
  • British Council
  • CIMO (Centre for International Mobility)
  • Coimbra Group
  • Compostela Group
  • CRUI (Conferenza dei Rettori delle Università Italiane)
  • EAIE (European Association International Education)
  • UNICA (Network of Universities from the Capitals of Europe)

About the Project

Every year, ESN launches a survey that explores the current issues connected to academic and non-academic mobility. This is one of the biggest and most successful projects of ESN - in the last years more than 40.000 students responded to our online surveys. Many associations - student, teacher, academic, European, as well as various institutions collaborated with us in the project.
  Through the gathered opinions of students, ESN gets a better insight in to the issues and is able to represent the students' real needs. ESN passes the results to the main stakeholders in higher education and mobility programmes: European Commission, National Agencies of Erasmus Programme, higher education institutions and all associations concerned with the topic. We believe that our work fosters mobility and improves the quality of exchange for young people in Europe and beyond.
